OUR LOCATION
Mole National Park was the first wildlife reserve established in the country dating to the 1950s and today covers 4,577 square kilometres of pristine Guinea Savanna woodland of northern Ghana.
The dominant vegetation is open savanna woodland with grasses that can reach 3 m during the rainy season. Open areas of short grassland, known as bovals, are found in locations with shallow soils and iron pans. Narrow bands of riverine forest grow along most of the streams.
The large mammals most commonly seen in the park include elephant, kob, waterbuck, bushbuck, warthog, hartebeest, roan antelope, buffalo, various duiker, oribi, baboon, patas monkey and green (vervet) monkey. There are now approximately 600-800 elephants in the park, up substantially from the numbers present in the 1970s.
It is also an international destination for avid birdwatchers with numerous endemic species. There are at least 344 bird species that can be seen, some of which are spectacular to see, like the carmine bee-eater and saddle-billed stork, among others.
